Frequently Asked Questions
1. What temperatures can your jacketed reactors achieve?
Maximum temperature depends on heating medium, jacket design, and material selection. With thermal oil systems, we achieve 600°F+. Molten salt systems reach higher temperatures. Material selection ensures adequate strength and creep resistance at operating temperature. We design for your specific temperature requirements.
2. How do you manage thermal expansion in high-temperature service?
High-temperature operation causes significant thermal expansion requiring proper design consideration. We incorporate expansion joints, sliding supports, and flexible connections as needed. Jacket design accommodates differential expansion between vessel and jacket. Startup and shutdown procedures minimize thermal stress.
3. What materials suit high-temperature jacketed reactor service?
Material selection considers operating temperature, pressure, and process chemistry. Stainless steels serve to approximately 1000°F. Inconel and other nickel alloys extend capability to 2000°F+. We select materials providing adequate strength and corrosion resistance at your operating temperature.
